We are very proud to present our latest Laser Cut Short Kit, the 108" Anderson Kingfisher! The prototype Anderson Kingfisher was designed and built by Earl Anderson, a Boeing 747 Captain. It took him 9 years to complete, with the first flight made in 1969.

Standard Piper Cub wings were used, and the result is a fun amphibian which flies like a Cub! We have improved on the original design with redesigned fuselage formers making up the front nose section, simplifying the build, and interlocking parts to accurately create the wing tip floats without having to do any foam cutting.

Yes we can ship our kitsets worldwide. All prices are in NZ Dollars. Check it out here.

The Moth Minor was designed as a low-wing monoplane to replace the biplane Moth series, and was intended to give similar performance with less power, without the need for rigging. With a selling price of only 575 Pounds the Moth Minor was popular with flying clubs keen to acquire modern monoplanes. Our own design of the Moth Minor in 88" for 90 to 120 size engines includes quick and easy interlocking construction for a simple yet accurate build, and plug-in wings for ease of transport. Check it out here.

Solarfilm Factory Closes - Grab Your Solarfilm Products While We still Have Stock
